One of many parts to the Southwest US’ beauty, is the nature and landscapes that aren’t man made. Arizona, a state in the southwest is home to the well known Grand Canyon. It’s a little over 6,000 feet wide and 270 miles long, full of wildlife such as the Coyote and the Turkey vulture. To some, the southwest might just be flatland but it means opportunity to expand and create new businesses and further urbanize the region
-- but still keeping the beauty of nature incorporated into the cities. Food is an important key in life, well I mean you live off of it. Here there are a lot of traditional, spanish foods which are super delicious. There are Tex-Mex restaurants almost everywhere you go. All of the foods have a little bit of a common pattern, spices -- not the ones that burn your tongue off, although those do exist here. It’s the kind of spice that gives you a little kick, like a kick from a cowboy boot. The southwest has a pretty cool history, besides the fact that it was part of the confederate states. There were 3 classifications for the tribes down in the Southwest -- farmers, villagers and nomads. The farmers were the Yuma and Pima tribes, villagers were the Zuni, Pueblo, and Hopi tribes, the nomads were the Apache and Navajo tribes. The Apache mainly hunted deer and elk, just like nowadays, where hunting is a tradition to do every season. When the spaniards came, they inspired the tribes to wear clothing made with cotton or wool from sheep, which the spaniards brought with them.
So yeah, the southwest isn’t just yeehaw and cows. There’s diversity in many things, such as land, people, food and history. I would ramble on about them, but because of the deadline -- I can’t.
